The intent is to cook the item evenly, ensuring that the inside is cooked to a doneness without overcooking the outside while retaining moisture and tenderness.
Our process is far more commercial and large scale than what is experienced in the restaurant though we pride ourselves through using manual processes to achieve an identical home or restaurant made feel to the flavor profile.
Ribs and Roast is a story of the coming together of the chef and butcher with a combined industry knowledge of over 70 years between them and the perfect ingredient for producing quality cooked meat products.
The business thrives on the knowledge the founders pass onto our team each day allowing us to grow further off the solid foundation that has been instilled in every one of us.
The directors of the business live and breathe every aspect of the operations on a daily basis and forms a major part of the companies success.
The vast experience and relationships we have acquired over the many years of engaging in the food and meat industry has resulted in security of raw material across many sectors guaranteeing we meet our obligation to supply volume for the end user.
